vintagemad, 3 years agoCats are like humans, you have to earn their love, trust & respect. For me that's exactly what this image shows. I find this gentleman very attractive! He was obviously a special individual. Thanks for sharing it.

His wife ran off with the gardner and his smirk tells me, he thinks he got the best of the deal: peace and quiet and no nagging about what he should be doing rather than relaxing in his favorite chair!

solver, 3 years agosandinavian, your story is charming and I love your writing style.

Scott, your story, while funny and as always, clever, isn't very charming. :-) Another wonderful photo that evokes curiosity about the real story.

BeauxPurdy, 3 years agoI adore this. But it leaves me w/ so many questions... Is a radiator on a porch/veranda a common element in architecture from that era? What is his lapel pin of? Is his hat scratchy? Is he on vacation at the beach? Oh, it is endless...
